An Exceptional Quality And Charming Set Of Early 19th Century Regency Period Polished Steel, Ormolu And Brass Fire Tools, Or Fire Irons, Comprising Of Shovel, Poker And Tongs With Very Attractive Foliate Cast Decoration To Grip Handles And Elegant Pierced Fretwork Decoration To Shovel.

There are many varieties of antique fire tool sets and the quality varies greatly, as does the materials used for their construction and the decoration which is incorporated into their design. Some are very plain, some are overly elaborate and some are the perfect combination of quality, design and function.

These fall into that category with the attractively decorated handles and their simple stems which create real elegance.

They are also however extremely fit for purpose and had clearly been in use constantly for many years before arriving with us, at which point our restorer gave them the quick once over and a good clean, to ensure they are presented in the best possible condition for sale and ready for immediate placement within the home.

We think these are lovely examples of their type and would make a great addition to the fireplace in any home.
